Hi Jorn, Yup - here's a test page: http://www.janepatrick.co.uk/admin/test/login.php
Submitting the form manually (as you said) just bypasses any validation, which is NOT what I want, as I still need the email address validated before it's sent to the back end to email the password... Using: $('#login').submit() fires off the validation just fine (but I still need to kill the validation on the password field) I hope you have enough information now to help me out! Cheers, Dave
